How's the remote pay? I was under the impression that you get your pay adjusted based on where you live, so you wouldn't make SF money of you live elsewhere.

I did the math a while ago and I could probably make $100k or so more if I move there, but that would go almost entirely to COL and taxes, and I'd have to put up with SF traffic as well. And I have kids, so I'm unwilling to commute there (e.g. fly there for the weekdays).

I've worked on site there (my company partnered with Facebook for a project, so I hung out with one of their teams), and I really didn't like it. But I've heard a lot of people like it, so do what works I guess. My in-laws keep trying to convince me to move to SoCal, but that's worse than SF to me.
